This is an excellent album, even though a few of the artist's credits are wrong. The LP came out after Jimmy Gilmer and the Fireballs hit it big with "Sugar Shack" and Almor was the only budget label that made sure all of the cuts it leased from Norman Petty were vocals featuring Gilmer. Others had one or two Gilmer vocals fleshed out with instrumentals. The Angels cuts are two excellent pre-"My Boyfriend's Back" tunes from Caprice Records. So far, so good.

The mislabeling involves three of the four "Neil Sedaka and the Tokens" cuts leased from Morty Craft's Warwick label. "While I dream" is the only cut with Neil on it, recorded when he was with a group that also included Tokens founding-members Hank Medress and Jay Siegel. Neil left, Hank and Jay added the Margo brothers and recorded "Tonight I fell in Love" on Warwick. It's a great tune, but Neil isn't on it. When the Tokens left Warwick, Morty Kraft - thinking he still had rights to the Tokens' name - put out "Taste of a Tear" and "Never 'Til Now" by a totally different group that he called "Johnny and the Tokens." The songs are excellent, but there's absolutely no involvement by Neil Sedaka or the Tokens.

Yes, it's confusing - sometimes you need a "SECRET DECODER RING" to try to figure out what's on these albums. But there isn't a bad song on this LP so grab it if you see it at a thrift store or a car boot sale!
